Quick thoughts on the Tiger Woods incident

1. Never drive when you're angry at 2 AM.

2. If Tiger was having an affair, what the H*LL was he thinking? Quoting Rick Reilly (when Tiger was engaged to Elin): "... and engaged to a Swedish nanny so freaking gorgeous that rivers stop and take a look." I think the Eva Longoria Parker rules apply here; don't even think about it. And my hunch is, he didn't even think about it.

3. If Tiger didn't do it, what the H*LL was Elin thinking going after him? You'd think she'd understand the tabloids by now. This is one of the most lucrative gigs in town (being his wife -- not that I'm saying that she's in it for the money, she very likely is deeply in love with him) -- my point is, are you going to risk his livelihood, not to mention his place in sporting history, without significant corroboration? I would HOPE that she didn't go nine-iron on him just because of an article in the National Enquirer, but if you're stuck at home with a toddler and a 10-month old while your uber-rich hubby is jetting around the world to play GOLF (and GOLF has caused a lot of marital friction in much less moneyed households than the Woodses) -- maybe you are on the edge of going a little bit cabin-crazy and it only takes a slanted article to push you into a blazing rage.

4. I hope there's nothing to it; I hope he recovers; and if the report is untrue, the Enquirer should fire the reported. Because this is what happens when good people are maligned by innuendo.

Likewise for the brave climate scientists who have been unjustly and unthinkingly (because a vast number of climate change skeptics have very little actual intellectual capacity) attacked because of the stolen emails. Next post (actually the one above this).
